Subjectifying: adding subjectiveviews into object-context matricesOutcome: Subject-Object-Context (SOC) Tensors

18.
Potential sources for subjectification● Conceptual surveys: ● individual assessment of contextual appropriateness● Text mining: ● statistics of word/phrase-context patterns● Empirical psychology: ● reaction times, etc.● Brain research
